Well, I mean, we live in a context where there hasn't been active criminalization. I would say the sex industry has not changed much at all, in shape or form, over the last 20 years. We have the same number of people we're serving and the same number of agencies in town. In fact, we probably see fewer people on the street than was the case 20 years ago. Our own local context is one where criminalization under the law doesn't seem to be shaping the size or nature of the sex industry.
In terms of trafficking, if we look across internationally at places where they take more restrictive laws against the sex trade versus more permissive, I don't know that it's necessarily clear that the law actually shapes the size of the sex industry. I think there are probably more important social factors at play in terms of poverty, proximity, and migration patterns.
I don't see decriminalization as necessarily giving rise to much change in terms of the sex industry in Canada.
